Hi and Welcome
As others have hinted at 17” wheels with a 4.9 diff means you are doing about 46mph at 3000 revs. 19” wheels and you are doing 48. Doesn’t sound a lot but it does make a difference.
I’ve got hub mounted mudguards on my special but they are ultra light and held on with 3 solid 10mm stays. Don’t put lights on them……even the smallest side lights or indicators.
Patience is required to engage first on a 3 speed, make sure the layshaft has completely stopped turning!
Cheers
Howard
